2.4.2 MeTs GROuPs BRAnd HIeRARCHY


Level 1: Mets Group As far as possible, Mets Group communicates and markets as a unified Mets Group. Mets Group and its business areas have a uniform corporate image and identity, which are symbolised by a logo consisting of the head of a moose and the word Mets. Mets Groups imagery and visual image are consistent. In marketing communications, the Group will present itself as Mets Group so as to strengthen the common identity in all countries. The business areas will be presented as individual companies less frequently than before. All marketing communications will support Mets Groups core messages, reflecting the Groups commitment to sustainable development and enhancing its reputation as an attractive employer. examples of marketing communications on level 1: Corporate identity and reputation campaigns Marketing communications related to sustainable development Recruitment events and campaigns intended to enhance Mets Groups reputation as an attractive employer job advertisements sponsorship and supportive advertising social media (company level) Level 2: Business areas The business areas will not engage in marketing communications related to their company images. Business area logos should be used as little as possible. using the Mets Groups logo is always a safe choice. As an exception, Mets Board will continue to use its name in investor communications, because the business area constitutes a listed company. Company advertising and supportive advertising are always carried out at the group level, as part of Mets Groups consistent identity. stakeholder events and local events are organised using local resources. The invitations have Mets Groups logo and are consistent with the new visual image. However, business names and businessspecific content can be included in the texts. The business areas focus on products, product brands and customer solutions in their communications. examples of marketing communications on level 2: Business area websites extranet Customer magazines Media releases related to products and business lines event marketing, customer events and trade fairs Level 3: Products In product-level marketing communications, the message comes from the product brand and the business area. The message focuses on the product. Product logos are primarily used on this level. If a product logo is not available, the logo of the business area can be used. using the Mets Groups logo is always a safe choice. In fact, it is advisable to use the group-level logo with the brand logo. Mets Forest always uses the Mets Group logo in its marketing material. Combinations of product logos and business area logos are only used in brochures and marketing materials targeted at customers. In product-level materials, business area boilerplates can be used in addition to Mets Groups boilerplate. Business area boilerplates must always mention Mets Group. Old company logos (Botnia and Finnforest) are no longer used. However, Botnia and Finnforest are used as product brands, typeset in a new font. If desired, they can be used with the trademark symbol . examples of marketing communications on level 3: Regular marketing materials and marketing channels related to products (print and electronic) social media (product level) letters to customers

M-real, Europes biggest producer of folding boxboard, keeps advancing brand packaging through evolutionary development. we concentrate on producing clear competitive advantages to our customers in terms of efficiency, economy and ecology as well as visual perception and tactile impact. M-reals folding boxboards Carta Integra, Carta Elega, Carta Solida,Avanta Prima, Simcote and Tako score high points for appearance, converting performance as well as yield. whats more, the sustainability and safety of our products and operations help brands secure consumer trust and loyalty.

use large images inside brochures to ensure attention is paid to details. Avoid using several small images on a spread, as restless layouts divert attention from the images. Also allow for unprinted space, as it improves readability and layout quality. If needed, do not hesitate to crop images creatively, as pictured here. Cropping makes images more lively and brochures more interesting to browse.

Lightweighting for better yieLd

M-real has pioneered lightweighting achieving excellent strength and printability at low basis weights. Based on fresh forest fibres, a strong tradition of R&D, breakthroughs in BCTMP and state-of-the-art mill technology, the development of ever-lighter boards continues. M-reals lightweight boards yield significantly more cartons per tonne and reduce customers total costs without compromising quality. Despite their lightness, the boards have the stiffness and the quality consistency to run smoothly and reliably in all production processes. This saves time, money and trouble.

SuStainabiLity throughout the packaging chain

As a packaging material, cartonboard based on fresh forest fibres has a notably small carbon footprint. M-reals lightweight boards further lessen environmental impacts, as they consume less energy and raw material, decrease transport weights and produce less waste. They decrease waste also by protecting the product and ensuring that it stays intact through the logistic chain.

RenewAble eneRgy on The RiSe


wood-based fuels and other carbon-neutral energy sources account for about 75% of the energy consumed by M-reals mills. we aim to further increase the already high share of biofuels and other COneutral energy in our production. M-reals latest investment in renewable energy is the biopower plant that will generate electricity and heat for the Kyro board and paper mill as well as the surrounding region. fueled mainly by wood chips and other wood-based fuels, the plant will reduce yearly emissions of carbon dioxide by approximately 100,000 tonnes, which equals the annual emissions from about 60,000 cars.

Made from pure fresh forest fibres, all M-real cartonboards are safe for consumers and the environment, which helps our customers build and maintain brand reliability. All M-reals raw materials are traceable, safe and approved for food contact, and our mills have certified systems to ensure product safety. The odour and taint neutrality of our boards meets the high sensory requirements of food packaging. We are self-sufficient in fibre raw materials and co-operate closely to further advance the Metsliitto Group expertise in pulp and its optimal use in board production.

use large images inside brochures to ensure attention is paid to details. Avoid using several small images on a spread, as restless layouts divert attention from the images. Also allow for unprinted space, as it improves readability and layout quality. If needed, do not hesitate to crop images creatively, as pictured here. Cropping makes images more lively and brochures more interesting to browse.
